Discovered him some months ago, his work is fantastic. "Skaldic Bard", as he goes by on the Internet, is a Catholic musician and husband who writes and performs music in ancient languages such as Latin, Gothic, Old English and Old Norse about great Christian heroes and epic battles.
He even creates renditions of songs that have already existed for centuries, but in older languages. For example, here is his translation of the German crusader song "Palästinalied" in Latin:

Hope somebody enjoys these. In my opinion, music like this is an antidote far surpassing the modern trash one finds on the radio, and a sure way of helping ourselves and others to learn about and preserve Christendom.
